  • FIG. 8B illustrates the subtitle setting information stored in a clip information file (*.clpi) according to the present invention.
  • a clip information file includes property and timing information of a corresponding AV stream file, and it includes information such as ClipInfo ( ), Sequence Info ( ), ProgramInfo ( ), CPI ( ), ClipMark ( ), and etc.
  • StreamCodingInfo ( ) included in ProgramInfo ( ) contains information indicating the coding type of the corresponding AV stream.
  • StreamCodingInfo ( ) also includes the subtitle setting information, examples of which are the maximum number of available subtitle positions (Maximum_number_of_positions), the maximum number of available subtitle font sizes (Maximum_number_of_font_sizes), and the maximum number of the user-selectable subtitle styles (Maximum_number_of_styles), all of which may be set by an author.
  • the maximum number of the user-selectable styles may be less than or equal to 25 due to the limited data storage space in an optical disc. Therefore, when a user makes a request for changing the subtitle setting into values that are not supported by these limitations, a warning message indicative of “out of supported range” could be provided or the setting could be set to values close to the supported values.
  • FIG. 9 illustrates an optical disc player according to the present invention.
  • the disc player shown in FIG. 9 includes a pickup unit 11 that reads AV stream data and subtitle setting data prerecorded in an optical disc, a servo 14 which controls operation of the pickup unit 11 , a signal processor 13 which restores a signal received from the pickup unit 11 or modulates a signal into a recordable signal, a memory 15 which stores control information including the subtitle setting data, and a microprocessor 16 which control operations of the servo 14 , the signal processor 13 , and the memory 15 .
  • the optical disc player further includes an AV decoder 17 that decodes the AV signal received from the signal processor 13 , and an AV encoder 18 which converts an input AV signal into a certain signal, such as MPEG2 transport streams, and transmits the converted signal to the signal processor 13 .
  • the disc player further includes a controller 12 , which basically controls operations of each unit included in the disc player. When a request for a change in the subtitle setting is made, the controller 12 determines whether the requested change is within the permitted setting ranges. For example, it determines whether a requested change in the position or font size of a subtitle is within the permitted ranges, or it determines whether such change is within an effective area of the display screen.
  • the controller 12 changes the setting of a subtitle based on these determinations.
  • the controller 12 also uses the user operation mask table (UO_mask_Table) information when determining whether a change in the subtitle setting for a particular play-back time is permitted or prohibited.
  • UO_mask_Table user operation mask table
